AND had to pay medical bills as if he might have had cancer in his wrist and HAD to go to the hospital. same with his wife. i can't remember all the other fake siuations that happened on that show.
he does another show on "steroids"... where a guy takes some testosterone and growth hormone to "lose weight" and the doctor gives him a massive list of supplements to take. first of all, growth hormone has no initial benifits unless you are taking it in massive quantities.. he was using less than 1 i.u. a day of what was probably shitty GH to begin with. Fat loss and other benefits do not happen in the short term unless you are well over 2 i.u.'s. otherwise any benefits they are looking for (weight loss, increased muscle mass) do not begin to happen for 3-6 months if at all. so that part and "30 days" was a joke to anyone that knows anything about it. second, testosterone -- he was only injecting 100mg per week (they did not say which of the many compounds it was) - which quite possibly might not have had any effect either in the short term.
thirdly, his supplments.
after drawing constant and endless attention to his wifes concerns that he was going to hurt himself (no proof that small, supplementary doses of test or growth hormone are anything but helpful) and being very careful to set up constant suspense with her bullshit - they go to the doctor to check his liver values among other things - which is something that the testosterone and growth hormone will NOT INFLUENCE IN ANY WAY because neither pass through the liver - again, another fake, bs set up. So his liver values are elevated, his wife is freaking out etc. this is something that they all should have known could not happen from the test/growth hormone. and obviously the doctor knew this.... yet everyone is in shock.
so... he did not take any vitamins or supplements EVER, then suddenly is taking two fistfuls of pills and his liver has to adapt to that. something the doctor pretended that prescribed them seemed to know nothing about (obviously footage was edited where he discussed this)
it was the same thing again... 2 anabolic steriods in low doses, one of which is guaranteed to have 0 effect in 30 days, one which might have no effect in 30 days (depending on what it was) - infused with endless footage of his wife freaking out because she was ignorant and stupid and couldn't be bothered to simply pick up a book and read or do the tiniest bit or research. then the issue of taking tons of vitamins and his blood tests which again, the doctor had to have known and they had to have known was the reason his liver values changed since neither the testosterone or growth hormone will do anything to your liver (its the stronger oral steroids that pass through your liver and in some cases pass through twice and have toxicity issues)... and most of the show was just misinformation, a poorly concieved "experiment" that had no basis in reality and endless footage of his wife in panic mode that he is killing himself with "steroids".
each show was like that... absolute bullshit, staged every step of the way and constructed to make a political statement.
